The limited-edition Renault Wind Gordini is in showrooms now, priced at £15,195 for the entry-level 1.2-litre version.
As with the rest of the Wind range, Gordini customers can choose between a 1.2 and 1.6-litre petrol engines, developing 100bhp and 130bhp respectively. Power is fed to the front wheels through a five-speed manual gearbox.
Renault has also reduced the price of the existing Wind range, with entry-level 1.2-litre Dynamique car now costing just £12,995.
The Wind Gordini is identical to the standard car, save for some cosmetic tweaks in the name of sportiness: these include a choice of three exterior paint colours – blue, white or black – along with a set of stripes, Gordini badging on the side pillars, and 17-inch silver alloy wheels.
Inside the cockpit, Gordini badges are embossed on the seats and applied to the gearstick, while there's a numbered plaque to remind customers of the exclusivity of their purchase, as production is limited to just 200 models.

I've only seen a couple of Wind models on the road, one of which had the central roof panel off making it look quite sporty in this summer weather.
This model, however, with the white tape on the steering wheel for that sporty image, just makes the car seem even more overpriced. Not quite as bad as the £27k Megane Coupe that they're advertising on tv at the moment, but it's getting there.
Personally, I'd go for the Twingo which has fewer blind spots and better three quarter vision.
